Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen are a perfect real life example of the benefits of platonic male love between friends. It is why several of my friends are used to me ending calls with “Love you dude.” Bring back intense platonic male friendships. They’re good for the soul.

Another reason to be bummed about how TV shows are now eight episodes every two years. It was potent to have a patrician guy on screen once a week, 25 times a year, for most of a decade, solving hard problems by consulting with a team of scientists and diplomats on the most ethical approach.

I hit me slowly, building up as I reflected on his life. He was not only a kind person, but versital. Very few screenactors can do voiceacting, but he was brilliant. He had such range, and could make you believe in even silly characters. Thank you for this post, makes me feel less alone.❤️

Captain Jean-Luc Picard was my captain. A beacon of strength, integrity, and leadership. Patrick Stewart was a great man. Every story I see people share about his kindness, humour, and loyalty reaffirms this. May his example serve as a guide to us going forward. He made it so.

I'm not one to be too invested in celebrity's lives, or have them affect me too deeply. I acknowledge the loss and feel the pain therein, but otherwise continue. But this time the weight of all of the recent losses hit me all at once. I've cried a few times already, and may yet do so again.
